2.4.8: Installation on a metal pipe using non-SUS
grounding ring material
The installation methods described in this section are for installation on a metal pipe
using non-SUS grounding ring material. For the installation method corresponding to
any other combination of materials, refer to Table 2-5 on page 2-12.
PTFE gaskets are provided for this type of installation. Although rubber gaskets
can be used, it is not possible to reduce the fastening torque. See page 2-17 for
installation using rubber gaskets.
CAUTION
The use of anything other than the PTFE gaskets provided can result in leakage.
The use of rubber gaskets is not recommended and can cause leakage.
To install a wafer detector on a metal pipe using non-SUS grounding ring
material and a specied torque:
• Install the detector as shown in the following illustration. The torque level for
tightening the bolts is not related to the gasket material.
See Table 2-1 on page 2-7 for the appropriate torque.
See Table 2-2 on page 2-10 for the inner diameter of the gasket.
